[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-354) Inappropriate payload of the @Initialized(ConversationScoped.class) event

Inappropriate payload of the @Initialized(ConversationScoped.class) event ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: CDI-354 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-354 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Bug Components: Contexts Affects Versions: 1.1.PFD Reporter: Jozef Hartinger Assignee: Pete Muir Priority: Blocker Fix For: 1.1.FD {quote} An event with qualifier @Initialized(ConversationScoped.class) is fired when the conversation context is initialized and an event with qualifier @Destroyed(ConversationScoped.class) is fired when the conversation is destroyed. The event payload is: • the conversation id if the conversation context is destroyed and is not associated with a current Servlet request, or • the ServletRequestEvent if the application is a web application deployed to a Servlet container, or • any java.lang.Object for other types of application. {quote} The conversation context is supposed to be activated in a container-provided filter with the name "CDI Conversation Filter". A Servlet Filter itself does not have access to a ServletRequestEvent instance (that is only available to ServletRequestListeners). Therefore, the implementation would either have to re-create the instance by combining ServletRequest and ServletContext or propagate the ServletRequestEvent from a ServletRequestListener. From an application point of view, ServletRequest is the only interesting property of ServletRequestEvent anyway. Therefore, I suggest to change the wording of the spec to specify ServletRequest (or HttpServletRequest) as the payload of @Initialized(ConversationScoped.class) and @Destroyed(ConversationScoped.class) events.
